Father FeIixhas invited ustoshare thehappiness ofthis moment.
When Istand here, IfeeI thepresenceof Ameer.
ItoIdfather FeIixtoshowme atIeasta photograph of Ameer.
ButI don'thavea photograph of Ameer.
IfItryI might get one.
Butthatis notneeded.
Ameer doesn'tIikethat.
WouIdn'titbetter if Ameer vanishes into thin air justIikeasweet dream ?
Anyway, I'm happy.
Hewas a IittIeafraidwhether hewouId becomea reason-

Extending myheartfeIt gratitudeto thatinvisibIefriendwho taughtthat-
-mymummyis notmy enemybut god.

That doesn'tmatter Ameer.
Itisfor a good cause.
Eventhen, I doubt,whether itwas necessaryto teII a Iiethat-
-a heaIthy person Iikeyouweredead.
Yes, itwas neededfather.
She'ssuch a nicegirI.
Ifshecomesto knowthatI'm aIive, shewiII neverwithdraw.
Infact,whatshehad towards mewas notIove.
ShemusthavegottheIove, careandsupportfrom me-
